So I did a scan on my system today with 360 Total Security Malware System Protection and it turned up a critical file. I know nothing about virus/malware programs and all I did was quarantine the file in question till i could get some feedback on how to handle it. Program stated that it was a Trojan and that the file description was MyWebSearch_Search Assistance "whatever that means" with a valid digital sig. Now what do i do after I quarantine it. Do I remove the ext. or do I remove the whole program file stran & then reinstall.

Would appreciate any advice from some of you experienced tech. savie people out there to help me solve this problem in which I am facing and maybe some 101 on virus program do's and don'ts.
